On a hard and fast deck tonight we haven't accelerated the run rate at all. Despite a couple of their bowlers being fatigued. Best bat has 51 off 33 balls but my opener is 33 off 44 balls.

As I type they take 22 off an over:

Duncan now 46 from 47 balls. Takes us to 110 with 4 overs remaining. Hopefully we can post an average score and bowl well.

Next over starts wd, 6, 6, 4

Was in it until they took 17 off the second last over. Now they need 4 off the last...get slightly annoyed when an ordinary bat scores 66 off 43 balls (his rating is 10000 for ****'s sake!). Despite that, him getting out would have only seen a better bat in.

Get a wicket off the first ball of the last over and then go for 4 off the second to lose the game. My best bowler is ****house at Twenty20 it seems. Only scoring at 3 an over for the first 3-4 overs didn't help my cause either.

Keen for my OD match tomorrow, takes longer, I can actually compete, and my players have some decent form in that format.

End of Over 32: 179-3, runrate=5.59
Parkes 6-0-39-2
Nissanka* 17 (20 balls)
Mukhopadhyay 58 (60 balls)
Last Wicket: Mulvaney Run Out 27 (FOW: 131/3)

Not bad. Mukhopadhyay is a gun. Mulvaney (learn to run between the wickets!) and him are my core, if they fail the whole batting fails.

So, I've got a problem. My two openers are failing most innings. Should I replace them? They started off so good, averaging 50 and 100, and one of them is my captain.

What should I do?

End of Over 50: 286-9, runrate=5.72
Tench 10-0-50-2
Nissanka* 64 (67 balls)
Rocastle 2 (5 balls)
Last Wicket: Jabulile lbw b. Rayno 0 (FOW: 283/9)

Pretty happy with that score. Again, Mukhopadhyay is my saviour. Nissanka has proven to be a good buy for me with his wicketkeeping batting, plus he is only 17 and will be trained up to be good.

Shame my tail had to collapse, I could have pressed on and made a bigger score if they hadn't.

Won the toss against a bot today and batted first:

Coco's Nuts - 390/2 (Duncan 202*, Nkosinathi 94, Faulconbridge 55; Sansome 1/82)

Should bowl them out for not much too. Good to get a chance to get both runs and wickets. Duncan's my second bat to ever reach 200. Would have backed Nkosinathi to add to his 220* from a previous season, but he's getting out to bot teams this season for some reason.

MMT two wickets down in seven balls for no runs so far

Make that 3/1 in 10 balls.

Game's finished predictably early.

MMT - 14/10 (Sansome 6; Mabudafhasi 5/8, Andre 3/5, Faulconbridge 1/0 off 1 ball)

Game slowly swinging back in my favour. God I hope my allrounder doesn't have to bowl at the death though if it's close.

And that's the end of the match. bushrangers cc won by 6 wickets.
Killers CC 286-9
bushrangers cc 287-4


End of Over 49: 287-4, runrate=5.86
Jabulile 9-0-86-0
Bullivant* 4 (4 balls)
Barlow 55 (38 balls)

Only I could lose a match from a commanding position. When their best batsmen came in (who I dismissed after a quickfire 22 everything changed. Jabulile, what sort of bowling is that!?!?
Dropped.

EDIT: Actually, that's an overreaction. I'm gunna give him and Britz a trial in Sunday's friendly and the bet bowler, combined with past perfomances, will partner Waters opening the bowling.

Was an epic match mate. Thoroughly enjoyable.

EDIT: Jake, Jabulile is on moderate fitness. What did you think was going to happen?

Yeah, Jake you need to rest some guys if you want them to perform at their best.

A few more players as back up would make it easier to do that though.

I need some bowlers to rotate then. I've got 5 bowlers only, then some allrounders who bowl ****.
